Sure, STAY away from Michigan!!!

Seriously,

Will you be diving in fresh water lakes or salt water? Play shallow where you scoop and get comfortable swinging your detector, moving rocks and not being able to see. After you get comfortable go deeper and RELAX. Enjoy the experience and never panic.

If in fresh water, DO NOT skimp on a small dive float and flag. Get a large 15" inner tube float and a big flag. Stupid boaters don't know what they are anyway, but there will be no excuse that they couldn't see it.

Ring

I have seen that three rings in one called a trinity ring. I found one when a group decided to set up on the beach about five feet in front of me. So being a gentleman i detoured around them and the trinity ring came out of the sand. Glad they forced me out of line of travel.
